Hey guys
I’m on day 13 post ACL reconstruction with hamstring graft.
I’ve been trying to do my exercises and bend my knee but it feels like once I get to a certain point, this section that I’ve circled is bulging hard and pushing against my skin. Like I can’t go further because of whatever that is bulging.
Yes it’s normal I think
I’m post op day 8 acl reconstruction surgery with hamstring graft
Yes I’m the same and I’m day 12.
yes. continue icing and doing heel slide exercises.
I have this to and my ohysio said it’s normal. The cut they do on the side there is where they do the drainage port in the surgery. So that’s why we get alot of swelling post surgery . Takes a while to flush out but it will happen
Thanks for the responses guys.
Forgot that I’m seeing my physio in the morning anyway, but it’s good to hear that it’s happening to other people too
Mine is my right knee but I have an incision in the same spot on the other side. I’m day 9 today acl
Recon with hamstring graft too. It literally feels like it will burst open. I’m sure it’s just swelling but Interested to see what your physio says
